Be My Forever [COMPLETE]

Chapter 61

My mother helped me sneak into Toby's room. He was asleep. God, he looked like an angel. My mom stayed in the hall as I sat next to Toby. I held his hand, and hoped he would wake up.

"I'm so sorry this happened," I whisper, hoping he would hear me, "I wish I was there instead of you."

I wanted him to answer. No, I needed him to answer. I squeezed his hand, wanting more than anything to hear his voice. There was a part of me that was convinced he would wake up. That part was so sure that things would be okay.

"I know you can hear me, Tobes. Please, just wake up." I beg, feeling tears stream down my face.

"Spencer, honey, we need to go." My mom said, taking my hand and pulling me back to my hospital room.

"Thanks for that mom, I really needed it." I say, hugging her. I was so glad to finally have my mom in my life, and that we could actually have a real mother-daughter relationship.

"Don't mention it, Spencer." She said, "Really, don't. I don't want the doctors knowing we were back there." We both laughed.

2 weeks passed. I was able to get out of the hospital. Toby wasn't. He was still unconscious. I visited him every day, hoping and praying he would get better. And day by day, he sort of did. His wounds got better, his heart was beating normally again, but he just wouldn't wake up.

I talked to him every day as well. God, I wanted him to answer so badly. I would tell him about my day, how he's progressing, and I would tell him about the baby. I would mostly talk about the baby. How I had secret hopes it would be a boy, and how great we would be as parents. I told him about how excited my mom was to see us have a baby.

If anything, I wanted the baby to be the reason he woke up. I wanted his heart to be so set on being a dad that he would just... wake up.

I didn't care about myself. I cared about him more than anything. If for some reason, he didn't make it, I don't know what I would do with my life. I can't afford to lose someone else. Especially him.
